I thought SA had decided not to go for an alliance.
As it is, they partner with several different airlines for miles and points and codeshare on several routes. Why do they need an alliance?
Still, it's difficult to know whether to add miles to my SK, DL or BD acounts for upcoming SA flights - looks lke BD because I'll get double miles plus 25% mileage.
Only downside is no status.
